Poore said the district’s outreach today would include a request to families who might have previously signed up for virtual school, but might be rethinking that decision in light of a Pulaski County judge’s preliminary injunction against enforcement of a state law that bans public mask requirements. The LRSD Board will meet Thursday to approve the district’s Ready for Learning Plan, which will include a universal mask recommendation. The board is expected to approve the plan.

Reminder Regarding Opportunity School Choice Act

Please be advised that LRSD students’ residence-assigned to Level 5 - Intensive Support school districts and/or 'F' schools are eligible for Opportunity School Choice, including support for transportation. Applications are on a first applied/first accepted basis by May 1st.

The application period runs fron Jan 1st to May 1st and a link will be here to the online application website.

If you are new to the LRSD and would like to apply for a magnet or specialty school, you can contact Student Registration ( [email protected] or 501-447-2950 or send a message using our contact form  - Espanol ) to sign you up through maintenance.

Educational choice provides parents with options on how best to educate their child, including school transfers and magnet school programs. Parents and students can take advantage of unique curriculum offerings, special emphasis programs and other activities. LRSD parents may apply for their child to attend a school outside of their attendance zone during a designated time period.  The other options for requesting new assignments are detailed below.

What are our assignment options? 

Each parent has an opportunity to request for their child an assignment to a school outside of their attendance zone. It is recommended that parents explore their options before processing requests by visiting the schools in which they are interested and gathering information about those schools. Staff in the Student Registration Office are available to assist parents who are seeking information about assignment options.

Magnet school and transfer applications for the following year may be submitted during designated registration period and at times thereafter. These transfers are approved for entry at the start of the school year or at the beginning of second semester with few exceptions. Once a student has been placed at a school of choice, he/she may remain through the completion of that organizational level (elementary, middle, high school).  

What magnet schools and programs are available?

Magnet schools - schools with a themed program designed to attract students from throughout the central Arkansas area were introduced in the LRSD during the 1987-88 school year.  The magnet schools are:

• Parkview Arts and Science Magnet High School
• Horace Mann Arts and Science Magnet Middle School
• Booker Arts Magnet Elementary School
• Carver Math and Science Magnet Elementary School
• Gibbs Magnet Elementary School of Foreign Language and International Studies
• Williams Traditional Magnet Elementary School

To apply for magnet/specialty schools, visit  http://schoolchoice.www.lrsd.org . 

Parents will use the following formula to apply:

USERNAME : Student’s LRSD ID number-  Example :  345678

PASSWORD : Student’s Date of Birth- Example :  11/27/2004

How are magnet school assignments made?

LRSD parents interested in one of these schools must complete an online magnet school application.  

School Feeder Patterns-Please note: Sibling preference* will only be granted to students who are currently attending the school of interest and the student (sibling) has maintained enrollment.

*Sibling preference will not be granted during Open Enrollment periods for students who are terminating an organizational level, i.e., siblings who are at the 5th, 8th and 12th grade levels, with the exception of 5th grade students at Forest Heights STEM Academy.

Students will be assigned based on a computerized random selection process (scramble).  Therefore, no numbered waiting lists will exist.  When additional seats become available, students will be assigned and another scramble will be initiated to fill available seats. 

The popularity of the magnet schools prompted the LRSD to create specialty/magnet programs at certain attendance zone schools. Parents may apply for their children to attend these specialty/magnet programs:

• Central High School International Studies Magnet School
• Parkview Arts & Science Magnet School
• Dunbar Gifted & Talented  / International Studies Magnet Middle School
• Horace Mann Arts & Science Magnet School

​How are transfers granted?
